Place is very neat, but will not check in there again. Gate is not locked. Would suggest a mirror be put up for ladies close to power point for hair and makeup. Also at least a bag or two of coffee, tea and sugar. A bit noisy on main road with trucks. There was also no WiFi password to use.

Plek is baie netjies, maar sal nie weer daar inboek nie. Hek word nie gesluit nie. Sal voorstel 'n spieel word opgesit vir dames naby aan kragpunt vir hare en grimering. Ook darem 'n sakkie of twee koffie, tee en suiker. Bietjie raserig op hoofpad met trokke. Daar was ook geen WiFi-wagwoord om te gebruik nie.

No amenities when power is off, poor interest in guests, disappointing. Unfortunately, I really regretted the guest house and that I paid. It was bitterly cold and upon my arrival I had to hear that a substation had burned out so no power. I was shown the room has a tube light which is an emergency light but it only worked for 20min and flickered every now and then. At least I got a kettle of hot water on my arrival and was able to make myself a coffee by 17h30. Unfortunately I sat in a dark cold room and after I called Louisa about the power problem they switched on a generator at 19h00. I thought well like most guesthouses they will at least run the generator until at least 22h00 and watched TV and wanted to heat my food at 20h00 but it was turned off after 40min. Called again and asked why there is no water, but she said then there isn't because the power has been off since 15h00. ?. I assumed the generator had run out of gas and waited half an hour hoping my dark room would light up, but after I inquired again I was told they had turned it off because 'apparently' the technicians were on scene and going the substation that exploded was fixed work, very unlikely because where do you get parts on a Friday night and there was a municipal worker in the explosion, so surely DoL should have investigated? So I had to get by in a freezing cold room with my cell phone light with no hot water, on the contrary no water because water only runs on the pressure pump, no way to heat my food, no heater I could turn on and no TV is not. So I paid for WiFi (which went off sporadically) and a pitch black room! There was no apology from Louisa at any time, I think on the contrary it bothers her. I went to read the previous ratings and it's a constant problem here that power goes off outside of load shedding as well, why wouldn't they cater for that? Are they just looking for the income? Things would be somewhat acceptable if they could keep the generator running until 22h00 so that one could then go to sleep and have a basic necessity such as running water for the money one pays. Gas geysers - not something they know about and could implement the last few years of struggle? A decent table on which all their cutlery can stand and not having to store some of the cooking appliances on the room floor. A gas stove is another appliance they could offer. Old furniture, one of which has no drawers. As mentioned no help or apology was offered, I would be ashamed to run a place like that and what else advertise! I would not recommend this place in any way.

Geen geriewe as krag af is, swak belangstelling in gaste, teleurstellend. Ongelukkig was ek baie spyt oor die gastehuis en dat ek betaal het. Dit was snerpend koud en met my aankoms moes ek hoor 'n substasie het uitgebrand so dus geen krag nie. Daar is vir my gewys die kamer het 'n buislig wat 'n noodlig is maar diè het slegs 20min gewerk en nou en dan geflikker boonop. Ek het darem met my aankoms 'n ketel warm water gekry en kon vir my 'n koffie maak teen 17h30. Ongelukkig het ek in 'n donker koue kamer gesit en nadat ek vir Louisa gebel het oor die krag probleem het hulle 'n kragopwekker aangesit 19h00. Ek het gedink goed hulle sal soos meeste gastehuise ten minste die opwekker laat loop tot ten minste 22h00 en het TV gekyk en wou my kos warm maak 20h00, maar dit is afgesit na 40min. Weer gebel en gevra hoekom is daar nie water nie, maar sy het gesê dan is daar nie want die krag is van 15h00 al af. ?. Ek het aangeneem die opwekker se petrol is klaar en het 'n halfuur gewag met die hoop dat my donker kamer sal oplig, maar na ek weer navraag gedoen het is ek meegedeel hulle het dit afgesit want 'blykbaar' is die tegnikuste op toneel en gaan die substasie wat ontplof het reggemaak work, heel onwaarskynlik want waar kry jy parte op 'n Vrydagaand en daar was 'n munisipale werker in die ontploffing, dus sekerlik moes DoL sou ondersoek moes las? Dus moes ek in 'n yskoue kamer met my selfoonlig oor die weg kom met geen warm water, inteendeel geen water omdat water slegs loop op die drukpomp, geen manier om my kos warm te maak nie, geen verhitter wat ek kon aansit nie en geen TV nie. Ek het dus betaal vir WiFi (wat sporadies) afgegeaan het en 'n pikdonker kamer! Daar was op geen tydstip verskoning gevra vanaf Louisa nie ek dink inteendeel dit pla haar nie. Ek het die vorige ratings gaan oplees en dit is 'n konstante probleem hier dat krag afgaan buite beurtkrag ook, waarom sou hulle dan nie voorsiening maak nie? Hulle soek net die inkomste? Dinge sou ietwat aanvaarbaar wees as hulle die kragopwekker kon aanhou tot 22h00 dat mens dan kan gaan slaap en 'n basiese benodigheid soos lopende water kon hê vir die geld wat mens betaal. Gas geysers - nie iets waarvan hulle weet en kon implementeer die laaste paar jaar van sukkel nie? 'n Ordentlike tafel waarop al hulle eetgerei kan staan en nie van die kooktoestelle op die kamervloer hoef te stoor nie. 'n Gasstoof is nog 'n toestel wat hulle kon aanbied. Ou meubels waarvan die een bedkassie geen laaie het nie. Soos vernoem is geen hulp of verskoning aangebied nie, ek sou skaam kry om so plek te bedryf en wat nog adverteer! Ek sal hierdie plek geensins aanbeveel nie.

Not satisfied at all. I always give my honest opinion, but it's not nice to give a bad review. I will not come and sleep here again. When we stopped there for 2 hours, the room was still not ready; the owner's apology was not acceptable. The beds are very old, the springs are pushing through the mattress, slept very badly. The curtains in front of the sliding door are very dirty. The shower head sprays in 10 different jets and it is difficult to shower. The microwave was dirty. Not pleasant at all.

Glad nie tevrede nie. Ek gee altyd my eerlike opinie, maar dis nie lekker om 'n slegte resensie te gee nie. Ek sal nie weer hier kom oorslaap nie. Toe ons 2 uur daar stop, is die kamer nog nie reg gewees nie; die verskoning van die eienaar was nie aanvaarbaar nie. Die beddens is stokoud, die springs druk deur die matras, baie sleg geslaap. Die gordyne voor die skuifdeur is baie vuil. Die stortkop spuit in 10 verskillende strale en dit is moeilik om te stort. Die mikrogolf was vuil. Glad nie aangenaam gewees nie.

Hospitable and affordable. Dogs bark at night. Very difficult to sleep well.

Gasvry en bekostigbaar. Honde blaf snags. Baie moeilik om lekker te slaap.

Silvex is located on the outskirts of Piet Retief and is a pleasant place to spend the night, but the beds need attention. Mattresses are worn out and uncomfortable to sleep on. The plastic toilet seat is broken.

Silvex is geleë aan die buitewyke van Piet Retief en is 'n aangename plek om te oornag, maar die beddens het aandag nodig. Matrasse is uitgewerk en ongemaklik om op te slaap. Die plastiek toiletsitplek is gebreek.
